A new Depot Days event brought a large crowd from all over to Hartselle early Saturday morning.

The Hartselle Kiwanis Club sponsored the Thirteen One Half Marathon at Quail Creek Golf Resort.

Club member Justin Barley said they had 157 participants registered including those who participated in late registration.

“We have about half of the runners that we were hoping to have, but it’s a great start for this event,” Barley said. “It gives us something to build on for the future.”

Barley said the half marathon has attracted athletes from as far away as Kentucky. He also added that there are several runners from Tennessee and Georgia.

Many of those runners, Barley added, will be first time visitors to Hartselle.

“I think it’s an event that will help draw more people to our area,” Barley said. “The half marathon route was in a scenic part of Morgan County around Quail Creek Golf Resort. Many of the out-of-town runners stayed at the Inn at Quail Creek.”

He also said rain didn’t cancel the run and was fortunate that the heavy rain didn’t contain any lightning.

“If there was lightning, we had a plan in place for that,” Barley said. “We started the race a 7 a.m. due to the possibility of the middle of the day heat.”
